I finally bought a SIKU Tupolev TU 104 from a dealer in Germany which I'm anxiously awaiting. I wish it were made of metal instead of plastic but it's the only small scale example I've been able to find of this aircraft. I'm trying to complete my collection which consists of all jet airliner types representative of the 50s through 70s in European or American liveries. I'm still searching for the following aircraft: Trident HS 121, YAK 40, Dassault Mercure and if I'm really dreaming big, I could add the AVRO C 102, VFW 614 and Baade 152. The last three airliners never really made it into any significant production numbers.
